Radio waves can be harmful to the human body. Since safe distances vary by country and
ship construction there is no uniform formula for calculating safe distance. However, below
are general guidelines.
• Personnel should not approach an area in which the radiation level is higher than 10
W/m
, i.e., within 1.00 m from the radome surface.

• Construct a protection fence around the antenna unit so that personnel can not approach
the antenna unit within 1.00 m. Also, to alert personnel not to approach the antenna unit,
attach the caution labels (supplied as installation materials) to any bulkhead which is at
the position of 1.00 m from the antenna unit.
WARNING
Do not approatch within 1.00 m of the
antenna radome when it is transmiting.
Microwave radiation can be harmful to
the human body, particularly the eyes.
